What about if it's an integer or a float? Thanks for your help though.

I've used MANY format calls on a linux SAMP server since 2007. I assure you..whatever is going wrong has 0 to do w/ format, linux, etc. I'm thinking the problem is between the chair and the keyboard.

YEah...so not every string size needs to be 256 or 512. Just throwing that out there...
